What do WE know that Warren Buffet DOESN’T? / InvestorEducation / Learn to Trade
By: Submissions
Simon Popple writes: I think we’re all very familiar with the concept of a “Recipe for Success” or for that matter “Recipe for Failure.” If you follow a certain path in life you invariably get similar results to others who’ve walked the same route. Be it the way you do your job, play your sport or invest your money.
To maximise your chances of success it’s best to emulate those who’ve succeeded rather than those who’ve failed. Although constant practice is no guarantee of success, by repeatedly following a proven process you substantially improve your chances of success. Set yourself up to win.

Market Trends, Space Programs, Rogue Waves: None are Linear / InvestorEducation / Elliott Wave Theory
By: EWI
Let's begin with the old paradox: "The only constant is change." This is the main reason why projecting present conditions into the financial future so often fails.

The Illusion of Safe Investing / InvestorEducation / Learning to Invest
By: Casey_Research
By Dennis Miller
Retirees are often more concerned with the return of their money than the return on their money. It's understandable; after our peak earning years have passed financial safety becomes our primary concern since the opportunity to earn back investment losses is essentially over.

The Fractal Nature of Markets - Technical Trading Video Lesson / InvestorEducation / Elliott Wave Theory
By: EWI
This Q&A gives you a glimpse into how market chart patterns can help your trading and investing
If you're like many traders and investors, you may not be particularly familiar with price charts. Sure, you see them flash onscreen as financial media announce market moves -- but you likely pay more attention to the fundamentals (financial statements, economic news, P/E ratios, etc.) than you do to the technical data.

See Dr. Ron Paul Up Close and Personal at the 2013 Casey Summit / InvestorEducation / Learning to Invest
By: Casey_Research
He’s never voted to raise taxes. He’s never taken a government-paid junket. And he’s never voted for an unbalanced budget.
He’s Dr. Ron Paul, and he’s always led by example. During his 36 years in Congress, he tried to convince his colleagues to vote along with him against any measure that ran counter to the Constitution. Unfortunately, they seldom did.

Five Point Test for Every Investment / InvestorEducation / Learning to Invest
By: Don_Miller
The issue is no longer one of waiting to see what the government is going to do; the real issue is what are we as investors going to do?
When I say the investment paradigm has changed, I’m referring to a combination of factors. There are no more solid, safe investments paying any kind of decent yield that most retirees could possibly live on comfortably. Re-read that if you have to. Investors are being forced to take on more risk for yield. Some are doing it using an income strategy, some are not.

Growing Wealth With Stocks: Expectations vs The New Reality / InvestorEducation / Learning to Invest
By: Dan_Amerman
The number one reason why stocks are a core component of most long-term financial planning strategies is their purported ability to reliably compound wealth over time.
How has this theory been working out in practice?
The world has been going down a vastly different economic and financial path than what many people in the 1980s and 1990s assumed it would. And within this new reality, there is a key question to be asked: how has real-world performance compared with typical projections of what average investors could expect when it comes to the growth in value of their investment portfolios over the long term?

Should You Invest with Borrowed Money? / InvestorEducation / Learning to Invest
By: Don_Miller
It’s high time investors heed the yellow caution flags waving in front of their margin accounts. Much like the NASCAR driver who pumps his brakes to avoid disaster when he sees the caution flag, it's time for us to slow down. My friend and colleague Ed Steer, editor of Ed Steer's Gold & Silver Daily, recently highlighted a must-read Wall Street Journal blog post focusing on the record-high levels of margin debt, and it sure made me pause to think.

Nadeem Walayat's Trading Lesson - The Psychology of Technical Analysis, Past, Present and Future / InvestorEducation / Trader Psychology
By: Nadeem_Walayat
If you have read my past trading articles and ebook's you should understand that I consider Technical Analysis in large part to be a red herring in terms of the decision making process with regards trading. In that technical analysis assumes knowledge and understanding of past price history as the key towards trading success i.e. that the outcome of past price patterns are likely to repeat in the future and thus should be acted upon when they re-occur.

Essential Parts of an Elliott Wave Trade / InvestorEducation / Elliott Wave Theory
By: EWI
Three steps may sound simple enough. Yet if you have any experience trading, you know that nothing about trading is easy. Education is imperative. So is preparation.

Investor Lessons from Bell Labs / InvestorEducation / Learning to Invest
By: John_Mauldin
Investors seek that elusive substance called alpha. It is too often remains hidden from them, and instead they find some form of beta, or simply what the market gives everyone. Sometimes, in secular bull markets, that can be plenty and investors feel secure. But in the secular bear cycles investing is a difficult task and one that at the end of the day may find you distressingly close to where you started.

Are You Preventing Yourself From Getting Rich? / InvestorEducation / Learning to Invest
By: Money_Morning
Keith Fitz-Gerald writes: "Why is it that people seem to plan for everything except success?"
My colleague Bill Patalon who heads up Private Briefing made that comment to me recently during one of our after-hours chats. We've held them almost every day for the past 7 years since we started working together.
Long after the markets have closed and most of the team has gone home, "BP" and I talk about the events of the day by phone. No matter where I am in the world, I look forward to the 15 or so minutes we spend together.
